Dad built it in ‘06 before I had a camera good enough for video and just realized I never put it on youtube. Engine parts and motor were just scrap laying around his shop, pump jack parts came from Great-Grandpa Rudy’s auction, so he named it... you guessed it... Rudy!  :D

That's pretty slick.   Will it make apple sauce?   I like apple sauce.

The “head” can be tightened up for more smashing... I could throw an apple in it, but I don’t think my mom would be happy about the mess in her basement  :D  Maybe I could talk one of my kids into doing it... 😂
